Description
De Weerdt examines how occupational, political, and intellectual groups shaped curricular standards and examination criteria during the Southern Song dynasty (1127–1279), and how these standards in turn shaped political and intellectual agendas. This book reframes the debate over the civil service examinations and their place in the imperial order.
